My mum got mine for me from holland and barrett and she said they were very funny about it and said that they had to say that 'pregnant women shouldn't take it'.............which seems ridiculous to me as it's quite well known and loads of pg women do!........Will have to google about taking it with BF and c xx

Well, from a v quick search it would seem that it is fine..........one site says
Red raspberry assists in the plentiful production of breast milk. The high mineral content of raspberry leaf assists in milk production, but...
...Its astringency may counter that for some women, so use caution
Maybe that's because LO wouldn't like the taste of your milk if you drank it?
Another says.........
Breastfeeding mothers should stick with herbal teas that are not full of potent pharmacologic preparations. Orange cinnamon, lemon lift, and raspberry teas are good choices. Another fine choice is tea made from rose hips (the berry-like formation left after the rose pedals drop away), which contains a lot of Vitamin C.
It's not 100% clear (prob coz there isn't definitive research!...........Maybe another question for MW i guess!!
Most info is about it's use before the birth

Rose hip is in my raspberry leaf tea...
It's supposed to be very good for you so I can't see how it could be bad for baby..
